Great pictures. And yeah, I could see the Republic not really honoring the Protestant William of Orange who pretty much sealed Ireland's fate as a servant to the English crown. At least, the Celtic Tiger is changing Ireland, and all the Catholic/Protestant divisions are falling.
What most people forget is that Republicanism in Ireland began with the ideas of a Protestant aka Theobald Wolfe Tone, so the Republic should honor its protestant people, they are good Irish too.
